This St. Patrick’s Day weekend, the Reno Police Department is reminding residents to enjoy the holiday weekend safely. From the Leprechaun Crawl to the Shamrock Stroll, RPD is offering several reminders to residents:
Officers encourage Leprechauns to be aware of their surroundings and make responsible choices during the crawl. People should walk in groups, use well-lit pathways, and be aware of traffic. Keep personal belongings secure. People should also report suspicious behavior to law enforcement.
Enjoy the activities responsibly by moderating alcohol consumption. It is crucial to stay within legal limits and avoid excessive drinking. Designate a sober driver, use public transportation, or use ride share services like Uber or Lyft to get home safely. Never drink and drive.
More Patrol and DUI Officers:
Reno Police will have increased officer presence downtown, along with alcohol compliance checks to ensure bars and other businesses are following the law. Additional DUI officers will also be on duty to identify impaired driving.
